Re: Array iteration Problem.. Please help

your code is saying every time it is in the for loop check the array element and print if the item is found or not so its going to print 4 times... u should make a method that returns true if the user input matches an item in the array.... you can then write an if statement in the main method that prints item found or not based on the results of the method.... that way it will only print one time
